Прогноз на матч CS2 BIG - NiP

BIG and NiP will meet in the upcoming show match. The match will take place in BO5 format, where we will definitely see such cards as Cobblestone, Cache and Tuscan. And such a sign should definitely appeal to all fans of the stage.

BIG shape

The fourth team in the world ranking finished the season on a positive note, becoming the third in the BLAST Premier Fall 2020 Finals, as well as taking 3-4 place at the IEM Global Challenge 2020. At the last championship, the German team managed to beat Vitality (2: 1) and Astralis (2: 0), but failed against Team Liquid (0: 2). Now the team rested, returning with a new coach. From now on, DuDe will act as the "guiding" team, and it is likely that this particular match will be a place for experiments.

NiP shape

The 16th world ranked team, on the other hand, held its last tournament at the end of November. Let me remind you that in the BLAST Premier Fall 2020 Showdown, the Swedes failed miserably, losing to Cloud9 with a score of 0: 2. But now, after such a long absence, the team must loudly declare themselves. I will only add that some NiP players managed to play at the end of December at the exhibition tournaments. And frankly, there are few interesting events.

Personal meetings statistics

Over the past year, the teams have held three meetings:

• NiP victory in Europe Minor Closed Qualifier - ESL One Rio 2020 with a score of 2: 0.
• NiP win in ESL One Cologne 2020 Europe with a score of 2: 1.
• BIG wins at IEM Beijing-Haidian 2020 Europe with a score of 2: 1.

But is it worth considering these results in the context of the upcoming show match?

Forecast for the match BIG - NiP

Let the meeting be "friendly", the teams will obviously try fresh tactics and preparations. However, we will definitely not see a fighting spirit in the performance of players who clearly want to show off on such interesting maps. But due to the coaching changes, I have less and less faith in BIG. Therefore, I would venture to bet NiP to win with a coefficient of 2.18. It is also possible that the teams will hit the Total on cards 4.5 more, which is estimated by the coefficient 2.45.
